Nice collection, the 4th VB is a common fake, I like the OSD collar, its the first one I have seen with lugs North and South.

Those brooch back badges are collar badges or possibly for the FSC, as well as a sweetheart.

The HPC with the bricks in the walls between the towers appears to be the scarcer variant these days?

The 'vertical shank' (ie slider) was almost universal from 1906. Though (regular) Battalions in India still wore FSCaps which required loops.

Yes, there were Vol Bn badges worn for two years with sliders - there are a few about. Conversely there are quite a few TF badges with loops!
